I Wrote This Song

When I first started writing this, I swear
 My intentions were well
 And I'd start with maybe a memory or two
 But then I saw you for the first time in a while
 And awkward thoughts brought awkward smiles
 And I left your room for the very last time
 And I know that I can't sleep
 With all of these things, they're running through my head
 So I stayed up and I
 I wrote this song about you
 Isn't that cliché of me to do?
 But it's nothing for you
 The band just needed something more to play
 So don't blush or "hooray" at the possible sound of your name
 'Cause, no, I wouldn't go that far, no
 ♪
 Now I, I've watched these years disperse
 And still this verse lacks words
 And I'm losing all but a memory or two
 'Cause now I see you and I can't hold back a smile
 Your fashion's long gone out of style
 And there's nothing left to impress me anymore
 'Cause I know that I can't see
 That same girl that I had known so long ago
 So I gave up and I
 I wrote this song about you
 Isn't that cliché of me to do?
 But it's nothing for you
 The band just needed something more to play
 So don't blush or "hooray" at the possible sound of your name
 'Cause, no, I wouldn't go that far
 No, I wouldn't go that far
 And you're dying to know
 If a "thank you" will show up on my back sleeve
 But I don't think I'll tell
 Of who crafted this hell and fixed it on me to the world
 I wrote this song
 I wrote it about you
 I wrote this song all about you
 Yeah, the band just needed one more song to play
 Yeah, the band just needed one more song to play, yeah
 I wrote this song about you
 Isn't that cliché of me to do?
 But it's nothing for you
 The band just needed something more to play
 So don't blush or "hooray" at the possible sound of your name
 'Cause, no, I wouldn't go that far
 No, I wouldn't go that far
 No, I wouldn't go that far
 No, I wouldn't go
